About Bob Heil (source Wikipedia)

Bob Heil (October 5, 1940) is an Americansound and radio engineer most well known for creating the template for modern rock sound systems. He founded the company Heil Sound in 1966, which went on to create unique touring sound systems for bands such as The Grateful Dead and The Who. He invented the Heil Talk Box in 1973, which was frequently used by musicians such as Peter Frampton, Joe Walsh and Richie Sambora, and is still in use today.

Heil has been an innovator in the field of amateur radio, manufacturing microphones and satellite dishes for broadcasters and live sound engineers. In the late 1980s Heil Sound became one of the first American companies to create and install Home Theaters, and Heil has lectured at major electronic conventions and taught classes at various institutions.

He has won multiple awards and honors, and in 2007 he became the first manufacturer to be invited to exhibit at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I was there on Saturday, enjoying the perfect weather and meeting friends both old and new. Hunt Master Dave Pommer and other club members did a fantastic job, as usual, in the organisation and implementation of the event. Lot’s of prizes were handed out, and other than a few cars stuck in the mud, it seems like everyone had a great time. The weather was perfect !
